How to use API (QMHRCVPM)
Hi everyone... My first time to this site and I could use some help.
I'm trying to use the Receive Program Message API to retrieve an error message that I want to mail to a user.
Here's the scenario:
Program 1 calls Program 2 calls program 3 calls program 4
Program 4 has an unmonitored message that the operator replies to with a 'C' to cancel.
I want to send the text of the error to a user from Program 2. Program 4 is no longer in the stack because it has already been cancelled.
How can I retrieve the CPF message from Program 4 and use it in Program 2 ?
Thanks for any and all help.

Answer Wiki:
Best thing to do would be to catch the error in program 4 and handle it. If you want program 2 to handle it you can use QMHRSNEM (Resend escape message) to send the escape message up the call stack (either directly or 'bubbling up'; see information about QMHRSNEM).
In the scenario you are describing, the exception is handled by the user through the inquiry message. When the user answers 'C'ancel, program 4 is removed from the call stack and program 3 receives a new exception 'Call to program 4 ended in error'. To find the original exception, you would have to examine the job log.
